ChatGPT
We’ve made it easier to bring documents and saved files into your conversations, find what you need, and pick up where you left off.
Writing, files, and search
Keep your formatting when you paste.On the web, text copied from Google Docs or another ChatGPT conversation keeps its headings, bold text, links, and lists, both while you’re writing and after you send your message.Add saved files without uploading them again.Open the composer menu on the web, selectAdd from library, and choose a file you’ve already saved.Select several Library items at once.On the web, drag across multiple files or folders to select them together.Find folders, files, and past conversations faster.Search now includes folders and matches conversation titles across web, iOS, and Android. On the web, you can also search within Library to find your saved files.Get answers that stay closer to your documents.ChatGPT makes better use of information in attached files when you ask it to summarize a document, find specific details, review material, or draft from a source.Use an updated composer when signed out.The signed-out experience on the web now includes a cleaner, unified composer menu.
iOS and Android
Safeguards for background Voice conversations. On mobile, ChatGPT can recognize when a background Voice conversation no longer seems active, check whether you’re still there, and end the session if you don’t respond. You can turn off Background conversations at any time inSettings → Voice.
iOS
Dictate with fewer interruptions.If dictation fails because of a connection issue or timeout, ChatGPT automatically retries once, helping you finish recording without starting over.Pick up completed answers without the replay.When you return to a conversation, completed answers now appear without slowly replaying as though they’re still being generated.
Android
Start Voice conversations faster.Improved connection times make it quicker to begin a Voice conversation with ChatGPT.
